It is a new luxury casino resort located in Newport City, across Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 3. This resort is said to be a joint venture between AGI and Star Cruises.*

If you are asking what or who Manila Sound is, well, I did a li'l research for you guys. So read on..

Manila Sound is a musical genre based in the Philippines that began in late 1960s and flourished in the early to mid 1970s. This was popularized by a pop rock band called Hotdog with their hits, "Ikaw Ang Miss Universe Ng Buhay Ko", "'Manila'" and "Beh Buti Nga", it was characterized by catchy melodic phrases. It is said to characterize the disco fever in the Philippines during that time.  It also ushered a procession of calculated radio hits by groups such as Cinderella, VST & Co., Apolinario Mabini Hiking Society, Florante, Rico J. Puno and Hagibis, among others.*
